    Tory Brexit No Deal DOOM™: Finally GOOD news!

    Remain voters are growing increasingly unhappy with the prospect of Brexit, according to polling from YouGov.

    In May, the polling company revealed that the pro-Brexit consensus had risen to 68 per cent of the electorate with a around half of Remain voters accepting that the result of the EU referendum must be respected.

    This group of people - comprising 23 per cent of the electorate - were dubbed Re-Leavers in recognition of the fact that they had subsequently come round to the belief that the government must deliver Brexit.

    However, YouGov's latest figures show that a growing number of Remain voters are now dead-set against the UK leaving the EU with just 28 per cent saying that Brexit should go ahead when polled at the end of September.

    This is a big drop - of 23 points - compared to the 51 per cent of Remainers who supported Brexit when asked the same question three months earlier, in June.

    Would be interesting times if they attempted to overturn a mandate from the majority of the electorate
    How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

      There is no legal mandate - it was not legally binding vote.

      There is no democratic mandate either - 2% swing changes vote the other way around, that's way too small majority for any serious decisions.

        Mandates are reversed on a regular basis, in the 1970's mandates were reversed every two to three years. The Labour party campaigned on a manifesto to pull out of the EU a few years after the original referendum.

        The EU debate will never end.

          A new referendum would deliver a new mandate.

            I hope new legally binding referendum will have 52% voting to reverse the decision ...

              It would indeed be interesting, though some say "interesting" implying there would be an uprising, that's complete rubbish. There would simply be a flood of very angry comments on the Daily Mail website talking about an uprising.

                The next referendum should be between whatever exit deal is struck and remaining.
